Canadian Vice Priors

As mentioned in our last post, Hilary Weston was made a Dame of Justice in 1997 upon her appointment as Lieutenant-Governor of Ontario. We were trolling through our files and found a picture from 2005 of Norman Kwong, the newly appointed Lieutenant-Governor of Alberta, receiving his insignia as a Knight of Justice of the Order. As we noted earlier, the Lieutenant-Governor of each province is made the Vice-Prior for the Order in that province. This picture comes from 23 May 2005 and was taken in Edmonton, the capital of Alberta.
